Search Engines - Am I being indexed?

I added a robots.txt file that basically told the search engines to not index the admin directory. Otherwise it should parse the whole catalog.

 

My main page:

http:\\www.matrixtek.com has two links, one to the catalog and one to the allprods.php page.

 

I submitted the site to all the major search engines. I am getting visits from the bots, but I am not sure if they are working. Only one or two seem to be asking for the actual product pages or the all product page.

 

Any advice would be appeciated.

 

Thank You,

Kevin
